Definitions
- This invention relates to the treatment of crude oil, including heavy crudes, for reducing the total acid number (TAN) of the oil.
- crude oils is often dependent on the corrosivity of the oil, and corrosivity is mainly a function of the total acid number of the oil.
- TAN in turn, is heavily dependent, although not completely so, on the naphthenic acid concentration of the oil. Consequently, crudes having a relatively high TAN, e.g., ⁇ 2 have a significantly lower market value, on a per cubic meter basis, than crudes having a relatively lower TAN.
- high TAN crudes are often blended off with lower TAN crudes rather than being processed separately through refineries, thereby avoiding excessive corrosion in refinery equipment.
- TAN containing oils e.g., crudes, extra heavy oils, bitumens, kerogens
- flashing off vapors including light gases, water, and light hydrocarbons subjecting the remaining liquid phase to a thermal treatment wherein naphthenic acids are decomposed and TAN is reduced, followed by recombining at least a portion of the hydrocarbon vapors recovered from the flash with the treated liquid.
- thermal treatment of is invention is not to be confused with visbreaking which is essentially a treatment of heavy oils or whole crudes at temperatures in excess of the temperatures of the thermal treatment disclosed herein.
- TAN reductions in accordance with this invention are preferably on the order of at least 70%, more preferably at least about 80%, still more preferably at least about 90%.
- the oil to be treated may or may not be subjected to desalting prior to the flashing of the light materials.
- Desalting is generally preferred with oils having in excess of 5.7g of salt per cubic meter of oil and more preferably when the salt level exceeds 11.4g of salt per cubic meter of oil. Desalting is a common process and will be well known to those skilled in the art of refining.
- the crude or heavy oil is diluted with naphtha to provide ease of transportation, e.g., pumpability.
- the diluent will be vaporized along with C 4 - gases (e.g., light-ends), water, and anything else that will be vaporized at the flashing conditions of about 121.1 to 371.1°C, and pressures ranging from atmospheric to about 1.82 MPa.
- the extent of the flash step is largely determined by removing substantially all of the water present in the oil, e.g., to levels of less than about 0.5 wt%, preferably less than about 0.1 wt%.
- the flashed hydrocarbons e.g., light gases, naphtha diluent, or light hydrocarbons are recovered from the flash and maintained for later combining of at least a portion thereof, and substantially all, with the product of the thermal treatment.
- the thermal treating process described herein is distinguished from Visbreaking (a thermal treating process) by temperature and overall severity of the operation, as well as by operation at conditions that maintain water partial pressure in the reaction zone below a certain level.
- Visbreaking a thermal treating process
- severity in terms of equivalent seconds at 468.3°C, using the following equation:
- Visbreaking is typically carried out in one of two configurations, a coil reactor that is contained within a furnace or in a "soaker reactor".
- the former operates at temperatures in the range of about 454.4-487.8°C with a coil outlet pressure of up to about 7 MPa or above.
- the soaker reactor operates at an average temperature in the range of about 437.8°C at pressures ranging from about 0.31 to 3.45 MPa.
- Thermal treatment severities for both of these visbreaking processes fall in the range of about 100-200 equivalent seconds at 468.3°C. There is no specification on water partial pressure in Visbreaking. Operation at Visbreaking severities is neither needed nor desired for the practice of the present process where the objective is to destroy carboxylic acids (e.g., naphthenic acids) with minimal cracking of the oil.
- carboxylic acids e.g., naphthenic acids
- the process of this invention comprises the following steps: preflash to remove any water that is present in the feed, mild thermal treating in a purged low-pressure reactor of two or more stages and a final step wherein light hydrocarbons that are recovered from either thermal treating or from the pre-flash are recombined with the reactor effluent to obtain a low TAN upgraded crude oil.
- the thermal treating reactor operates at 343.3-426.7°C, preferably 357.2 - 412.8°C and most preferably from 371.1-398.9°C.
- Pressure is maintained below about 0.79 MPa, preferably below about 0.45 MPa.
- Reaction severity falls in the range of 10 to about 80 equivalent seconds at 468.3°C, preferably from about 20 to 60 equivalent seconds.
- reaction time will fail in the range of 17-134 minutes.
- At least a portion of the light hydrocarbons, stripped of water and preferably stripped of diluent, if any, recovered in line 15 is recombined with the treated crude by line 17 or line 17a; and a portion of the recovered hydrocarbons from line 15 or line 28 or both is combusted in furnace 18 through line 25.
- Carbon dioxide also an inhibitor for acid decomposition is formed in the process and is purged from the reactor along with water.
- Suitable purge gases include non-oxidizing gases, such as nitrogen, methane, well-head gas (fuel gas) hydrogen and carbon monoxide.
- the thermal treatment process of this invention is designed to minimize cracking of the hydrocarbons, yet maximize the decomposition of naphthenic acids. Nevertheless, during the thermal treatment some cracking of the oil will occur and small amounts of light hydrocarbon gases, i.e., butanes and lighter, will be obtained along with H 2 O, CO, and CO 2 that arise from decomposition of the acids.
- the yield of hydrocarbon gases is low at the mild severities used, and will range from about 0.5 to 2.0 wt% based on feed.
- Thermal treatment is taken, for this invention in its normal meaning and for purposes of this invention also includes the absence of any catalyst for promoting the conversion of naphthenic acids, the absence of any material added to react with or complex with naphthenic acids, and the absence of absorbents for naphthenic acids, i.e., the absence of any material used for the purpose of removing naphthenic acids.
- the thermal treatment is carried out to reduce significantly the oil's TAN, e.g., to levels of less than about 2.0 mg KOH/g oil, preferably less than about 1.5 mg KOH/g oil, more preferably less than about 1.0 mg KOH/g oil, and still more preferably less than about 0.5 mg KOH/g oil as measured by ASTM D-664.
- oils that can be effectively treated by this process include whole or topped crudes, crude fractions boiling above about 204.4°C, atmospheric residua and vacuum gas oils, e.g., boiling at about 343.3°C+, e.g., 343.3-565.6°C.
- any cracked hydrocarbons and light gases can be separately recovered and at least a portion thereof may be re-combined with the treated oil.
- a portion of the C 4 -materials produced in the treatment or a portion of the hydrocarbons produced and recovered from the flash step preferably minor portions thereof, e.g., less than 50%, preferably less than 40%, more preferably less than 25%, is combusted to provide pre-heat for heating the liquid to be thermally treated or to provide heat for the treating zone.
- the vaporous hydrocarbons, or at least a portion thereof recovered from the flash step are also recombined with the treated liquid.
- the vaporous hydrocarbons recovered from the treating step may be recombined with the liquid before or after recombination with vaporous hydrocarbons from the flashing step.
- the final recombined product may then be further processed in a refinery without fear of corrosion due to naphthenic acids, either in the pipe stills or in downstream units where various streams (e.g. distillates) from the pipestills are processed.
- various streams e.g. distillates
- a small fraction of the carboxylic acid components of the feed can volatilize under thermal upgrader conditions and emerge from the reactor as part of the volatile hydrocarbon stream.
- the yield of this stream, its boiling range and acid (TAN) content will vary with conditions used in the thermal upgrader.
- This stream can comprise materials with boiling points up to a temperature close to that used in the thermal upgrader, e.g.371.1-385°C.
- the yield can range from about 5 to 20 wt% of feed or more and TAN numbers can range from 1 to 3 or above.
- this treatment can be hydrotreatment in accordance with the procedure in WO/96/06899 based on PCT/NO95/00142.
- This process essentially includes treating the recovered fractions in the presence of hydrogen and a catalyst comprised of nickel or cobalt and molybdenum at temperatures of about 100-300°C and pressures of about 0.1-5 MPa, preferably 200-245°C and 2-3 MPa, and hydrogen treat rates of 53.4-890.5 SCM/cubic meter oil, preferably 89.1-356.2 SCM/cubic meter oil.
- the reactor system for the thermal process is designed to provide liquid residence time at the chosen process temperature adequate to achieve the desired conversion and achieve rapid mass transfer to remove the inhibiting products of the reaction water and carbon dioxide.
- Suitable reactor systems would include mechanically stirred and jet stirred gas-liquid reactors, bubble columns, trickle bed reactors (loosely packed for enhanced mass transfer), membrane reactors, etc., etc. either staged or unstaged.
- a preferred reactor system for the thermal process is a continuous flow bubble column where the purge gas or stripping gas is bubbled up through the liquid to be treated which flows continuously through the column.
- the liquid may flow upward, producing cocurrent contact, downward, producing countercurrent contact or crossflow.
- countercurrent contact is preferred since it is more efficient in stripping the products of the thermal reaction from the liquid phase.
- the bubble column may be empty of internals, yet more preferred baffled, or even further preferred, a separately staged system may be used. It is advantageous to have a staged system to achieve high levels of conversion, and the conversion increases with the number of stages in an asymptotic fashion.
- An empty column basically acts as a single stage in one vessel and'has the advantage that it is simple, and that there are no internals to foul with contaminants that may be in the feed and/or trace reaction products that may be sticky.
- the baffled column gives a multistage reactor in one vessel and has rather simple internals to effect staging.
- the baffles may be disk and doughnut type or segmented and may or may not have holes for passage of gas vertically through the column. Generally, the baffled single vessel reactor will give more than one stage but less than the number of compartments produced by the baffling since some back mixing is always present in such systems.
- a still more preferred configuration is a separately staged system which gives the number of stages equal to the number of separate vessels.
- the stages may be stacked vertically. Any number of stages may be used according to the design of the process, at least two stages are preferred for the level of conversion desired.
- Dry Zuata feed was treated in a stirred autoclave reactor at 385°C 0.31 MPa for 60 minutes.
- the reactor was swept with argon, 67.7 SCM/cubic meter oil, during the course of the thermal treatment to remove volatile products, including water and carbon oxides that resulted from decomposition of carboxylic acids (e.g., naphthenic acids).
- the reactor purge or sweep was sufficient to hold water partial pressure below 6.89 KPa. In this manner, TAN was reduced by 90% and viscosity was reduced by 96.5%.
- Example 1 The procedures of Example 1 were repeated except that the autoclave was sealed. This operation simulates conditions in a coil visbreaker reactor wherein products of decomposition are in contact, under pressure, with the feed. In this mode of operation, the partial pressure of water in the autoclave reactor reached a maximum of 55.8 KPa (calculated value based on moles of acid decomposed). The resultant reduction in TAN was 80.6% and viscosity was reduced 91.8%.
- Example 1 Experiments were carried out with dried Zuata feed to further demonstrate and to quantify the effect of water on TAN and Viscosity reduction under mild thermal treating conditions. The procedures of Example 1 were repeated except that water was fed to the reactor along with sweep gas to simulate operation with feed that had not been dried, i.e., not subjected to the pre-flash step of the present invention.
- TAN conversion was measured as a function of increasing reaction severity, while purging the reactor with inert gas to hold water partial pressure below about 1.38 KPa.
- water was fed to the reactor along with inert sweep gas to simulate operation with a feed that contained 2.6 wt% bulk water. Water partial pressure was approximately 0.1 MPa in this series of runs.
- water was added to attain a partial pressure of 0.17-0.19 MPa in the reactor.
- Example 3 The experiments of Example 3 were repeated with the Campo-1-Bare feed (Table 1). With water present in the thermal treating reactor at 0.17 MPa, TAN conversion was inhibited relative to operation with a dry feed wherein water partial pressure was less than 1.38 KPa ( Figure 3). Viscosity reduction was also inhibited by the presence of water.
